Owner Review Summary

Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say

👍What Pet Owners Praised

Owners frequently praised the caring, friendly manner of the team and clear, sensible advice that wasn’t overwhelming. Many highlighted fast access to appointments (often same day, even on weekends), fair or reasonable pricing, and strong surgical care such as prompt lump removals and good follow‑up. Several noted patience with difficult dogs and compassionate end‑of‑life support, including home visits.

💬Common Feedback & Suggestions

A minority reported concerns about bedside manner and communication, describing some consults as rushed, dismissive or lacking empathy. A few cited clinical issues, including a missed ear infection, a painful vaccine injection site, and post‑anaesthesia problems after a dental, along with frustration over delayed insurance notes. One reviewer was disappointed with how a sick native animal was handled, and another mentioned an administrative error with outdated records. Overall sentiment is strongly positive, but these critiques suggest room to improve communication, documentation and sensitivity to client budgets.
